    Very easy going, super immersive, fun first person shooter. The game holds your hand, but there is still a lot of stuff you can miss, including an alternate ending!

    The world and the story pull you in harder than almost any other game, meanwhile the gameplay and content makes sure you enjoy the experience and feel in tune with the plot. A true must-play.

    Metro 2033 Redux synonymous with atmosphere. Very few game I believe can match with Metro when it comes to atmosphere. Dark Statitons, Hopeless people from Metro of Moscow and Above the metro stations, there's a city which in ruins also is reflected beautifully.

    You can almost feel and smell the ecosystem of them. You will be felt to bone post-apocalyptic world. Like I wrote earlier, Atmosphere is that good.
    In addition to that game play is smooth. Maybe stealth kills look a bit premature and sometimes it hard where to go in the map but other than that everything feels right.
    A couple words for graphics: With new 4A Engine, Metro 2033 Redux shines. If you have PC to handle higher settings. you will find yourself playing one of the most beautiful looking post apocalyptic game ever created.
    So Without doubt Metro 2033 Redux is one of the best game of 2014.
    Read the novel!(it is also magnificent) Play the game.
    Spasiva Dmitry Glukhovsky for giving us such rich fiction world and Thank you 4A Games for making one of the most atmospheric game out of that great novel.    … Expand

    I played this game without knowing what to expect... and wow was I blown away. I expected Metro 2033 to be your typical post-apocalyptic shooter, and although it did fit that description, it executed it unbelievably well.

    The story is incredibly deep and well-written, and the atmosphere and realism are top-notch. You won't find many gimmicks in this game like you will in other games.

It's hard to describe the game because it's one of those games that you have to experience for yourself to understand how great it is.

    The game comes with various difficulties and playstyles for you to fine-tune your experience. I personally played on Survivor Mode at Normal difficulty, but I think you can increase the realism further by playing on a harder difficulty.

    The game easily deserves at least an 8, which is only weighed down by the ever-so-slightly-simplified gameplay, somewhat short length, and some glitches here and there. It's definitely a game all shooter fans should add to their repertoire.    … Expand

Metro Redux keeps itself where what made the original Metro 2033 great and puts it all into the Metro Last Light engine. Making what was a prodigious game even better; first by making the game less Unstable, and making it more streamlined in its new game engine (where the original Metro 2033 still struggles to run smoothly on modern systems due to its un-streamlined game engine of the time). It also fixes the middle of the game ‘game breaking’ bug, in which you would be shot off the map when the player fell off the rail cart, requiring multiple reloads to fix (which was never patched in the original).

    Along with all these improvements it also adds the great things from Last Light, such as the weapon customization and modernized weapon aiming, gunplay and control layout! This also includes bringing improved textures including for the character and enemy models from Last Light (which is a nice touch).

    All while allowing you to play in the original Metro 2033 style of resource and ammo management, or you can play in a more action oriented fashion with Last Light's game style, In Redux both play styles are accommodated. Along with Ranger difficulty; which make you and your enemy’s more dangerous (something really never in other games like Call of Duty where the enemy is just more accurate).

    All and all Metro 2033 is a classic (Mystery, Horror, Resource Management, Story Driven, Shooter) all of which I would express are done superbly. I have a great passion for the original Metro 2033 game when it released along with the Book Series, and this ‘Re-master’ makes it all for the better and improved! Metro 2033’s dark post-apocalyptic setting in the Moscow Metro is like a character in its self, and gives the game and it characters a great atmosphere. Highly recommended to try it out and find out why so many people love this series!

    Pros: Story, Gunplay, Weapon Selection, Multiple ‘True’ difficulty settings (Play as you want to!)

    Cons: Human Enemy AI (Is sometimes respectable sometimes not so much)

    Middle: Linear Story Driven Game (Not recommend for those who love endless open world experiences)    … Expand

    The theme of the Moscow Metro is revealed beautifully.
    The game is very atmospheric, diverse in gameplay, dynamic skirmishes with bandits at the stations are replaced by dark "tangled" tunnels, along the way we get acquainted with the far from sweet life of people in the post-apocalyptic world.

    The game is very atmospheric, diverse in gameplay, dynamic skirmishes with bandits at the stations are replaced by dark "tangled" tunnels, along the way we get acquainted with the far from sweet life of people in the post-apocalyptic world.
    I now, not even about the constant attacks of mutated monsters on human settlements, but about a simple everyday life in which people live in a room consisting of one bed and only, and the children play with all sorts of rubbish or hammers.
    Each character at the station has his own story behind his soul, his own thoughts, feelings.
    Gameplay: I liked the attitude of the developers to the details. I really feel how they emphasized realism. The weapon is interesting and original, not very much, and you can only carry 3 small arms and 2 missile weapons with you, plus a knuckle-knife. There is no automatic reloading, if the last cartridge in the clip went into the barrel, wait for the misfire. Ammo is always small. Another interesting point is the powder smoke from the shot that obscures the view, which makes it difficult to make a subsequent shot, and it's cool. All enemies wear helmets, and more than half also wear gas masks. Therefore, you can kill such with a single shot right on the neck, side or back. Well, or knocking down this helmet first. But then the enemies will sound the alarm. Sometimes they will let you shoot with an easel machine gun and a flamethrower, a pleasant trifle.
    As of 2014, I want to note the following advantages of the game: + Storey Line. Excellent, dynamic, moderately mysterious, storyline, on behalf of a person who lived his whole life underground in the subway.
    + Atmosphere. Metro and darkness. Apocalypse and hopelessness. Devastation and survival.
    + Gameplay. Skirmishes with human enemies are interesting. It is also possible to complete stealth levels. Enemies do not shine with a special variety, people, mutants. There is a certain variety in the methods of killing opponents. I really liked the use of cartridges as a currency. The presence of a limited duration of the gas mask. Powder smoke from a shot obscures the view. Dynamo machine for charging a flashlight and night vision device.
    + Artificial intelligence. Enemies are accurate, use cover, and throw Artem grenades.
    + Picture. Photographic, high-quality textures are pleasing to the eye.
    + Physics. Items in the game behave like in life. Mostly. And the overall picture is not spoiled.
    + Optimization is good. The game does not crash. But he eats resources extremely, and sags on the “qualifier”.
    Of the minuses are present:
    -The game is too short.
    -Linear. No freedom of action and side tasks. - A stupid save system based on individual save points.
    As a result, we get a pleasant, well-developed first-person shooter, with the possibility of repeated passage, to get an alternative ending and better assimilation of the plot. A game with a great atmosphere and an interesting plot.    … Expand

    Anni fa avevo iniziato ma poi abbandonato, senza un reale motivo, Metro 2033 originale. Tornata la voglia ho deciso di giocare alla versione Redux, visto che consiste quasi solo in un miglioramento grafico.

    AUDIO E GRAFICA:
    Colonna sonora perfetta che alterna brani cupi (bellissimo quello all'avvio del gioco ad esempio) ad altri allegri e vintage, come a far capire che la gente usa la musica per tirarsi su di morale.
    Dialoghi e doppiaggio non eccellenti ma buoni (anche in italiano) ed effetti sonori buoni, pure con un'ottima stereofonia che aiuta in certi momenti.

    Graficamente invece il gioco si presenta più moderno del Metro 2033 originale ma non per forza migliore in quanto questo forse era più "piatto" e cupo.
    In ogni caso il gioco è piacevole da vedere ma si capisce che è ormai di qualche anno fa, soprattutto nelle animazioni e alcuni oggetti dell'ambiente. Ben curate invece le armi.

    GAMEPLAY:
    Il gioco si presenta come un FPS con qualche elemento survival, stealth ed RPG, ma anche con tanti elementi caratteristici.

    Il gioco è diviso in capitoli e missioni, ma il nostro personaggio evolverà lungo l'intera storia potendo cambiare e personalizzare il proprio equipaggiamento, oltre a compiere qualche scelta di trama.

    Il gameplay sarà invece molto influenzato dall'ambiente in cui ci troviamo, visto che all'aria aperta saremo obbligati ad indossare una maschera antigas (con il rischio di finire i filtri o di rompere il vetro della maschera) mentre nel sottosuolo potremo vivere senza (ma stando attenti ad altre cose).

    L'unico aspetto che non mi ha convinto appieno è che nonostante sia presente un buon quantitativo di armi, alcune delle quali estremamente affascinanti, finiremo per usarne poche, visto che alcune garantiscono poche munizioni o costano troppo, prediligendo invece le armi più comuni. Non essendo presenti troppi soldi nel gioco è meglio spenderli per munizioni, filtri, medikit e granate piuttosto che per nuove armi, senza dimenticare la possibilità di personalizzare le armi in proprio possesso.

    Infine c'è da dire come il looting sia uno degli elementi principali del gioco, in quanto dovremo saccheggiare i corpi e rovistare in ogni angolo della mappa per trovare munizioni, filtri e altri oggetti fondamentali per sopravvivere. A volte sono presenti anche dei "segreti", in quanto alcune zone sono volutamente ben nascoste oppure necessitano di una chiave per poterci accedere.

    STORIA:
    Il gioco è abbastanza breve, io l'ho finito in circa 10 ore ma sono molto meticoloso nell'esplorazione.
    Nonostante la brevità però si riesce ad entrare abbastanza bene in una realtà post-apocalittica molto ben strutturata e pensata (non a caso il gioco è tratto da un libro).

    La trama base è semplice, bisogna sopravvivere ed aiutare la popolazione che si è rifugiata nella metropolitana di Mosca, ma questo porta a situazioni piuttosto interessanti, anche se forse in troppo rapida successione.

    Mi fa davvero impazzire come la moneta del gioco siano i proiettili "buoni", ormai rari e quindi di valore, così come i nomi e l'aspetto delle armi realizzate all'interno della Metro utilizzando rottami.

    L'unico aspetto che può confondere è puramente collegato al quel "2033" presente nel nome, in quanto l'ambiente in cui ci si trova sembra più di qualche anno fa o al massimo contemporaneo più che futuristico (che per me è un pregio, ma il nome può sviare).

    Per concludere, Metro 2033 è un gioco adatto ad un pubblico vastissimo, in quanto unisce velocità e divertimento ad una buona storia, una bellissima ambientazione e alcune meccaniche uniche. Inoltre essendo piuttosto breve non risulta essere particolarmente impegnativo da finire (a meno che non lo si giochi a difficoltà alte).

    Metro 2033 was a flawed, but good game. The Redux does a wonderful job of taking away those flaws while also updating the graphics, leaving us with a game that is great and feels modern despite its 4 1/2 year old underpinnings.. It is a shame that being a "remake" of a cult (i.e. not super popular) game it didn't get the press/critic coverage that it deserved.

    P.S. If anyone's experiencing problems with starting either Metro Redux game (such as SethroFives' issue, where it crashes at the very beginning of the game), then follow the next few steps:

    This is the fix I used to solve the issue:

    - Go into your Metro directory folder in steam and find the video folder (wherever it was downloaded, something along the lines of /SteamApps/common/Metro 2033 Redux/2033/ or /SteamApps/common/Metro Last Light Redux/)

    - Delete the file named "intro.ogv" (without the quotations)

    - Open notepad and save it as "intro.ogv" (without quotations)

    - Save the intro.ogv file you just made into those same folders the old intro.ogv files used to be in

    - Run the game. It should run without any more issue regarding crashes at the beginning of the game    … Expand

    The gameplay and atmosphere are top notch, but the audio side, especially the voice acting is quite underwhelming, when there are only like 5 voice actors with made-up accents voice acting every character in the game. Maybe the developers should have just used Russian voice actors with added English subtitles.

Most scenes are startling however this game does throw you into a ton of run for your life moments especially in the harder difficulties on Survival mode. Survival mode really does make you think hard about your weapon setups which to me adds a whole new level of tension.

Overall, Redux presents itself in a way that makes the original seem like an unpolished, early access. At first, I felt like the devs were trying to milk their customers by reselling the game with a few tweaks, but after trying out a pirated copy for an hour, I see that they deserve my money. It's a proper remaster. The original already had a great story, amazing graphics, and unique gameplay. Redux is an improvement worthy of $25, especially if you've never played the original. On the PC version you can increase the FOV via config file, while on console you can't touch it. My largest complaint about Redux is the lens flares. I'm tired of this trend where the character's eyes are treated like a camera. Afaik there isn't a way to disable them. I appreciate the beefed-up graphics, but I hate unnecessary effects, like the moon in the prologue. I've found another unnecessary change... The part where a guy on the rails was about to get hit by a cart but dodged it because someone whistled at him, then everyone laughed. Sucks that it got taken out in Redux. It confuses me why it was taken out, buuuuut okay then. The rest of the game seems promising. I'll buy it asap. Money is stupidly tight for me right now.… Expand

    Metro 2033 Redux is a good game: sound and visuals are great and they create amazing atmosphere, interesting mix of Fallout and Stalker. Gunplay is satisfying and exploration is as good as it can be in a strictly linear game.
    On the other hand, the game has way too many bugs for something that has word Redux in its name and stealth mechanics are not very good.

    I'm not kidding if I say I found just 4 minor flaws on the entire game (excluding gameplay, style and other subjective things each player may like, love or hate) which are:
    > quite slow loading times (played on a SSD disk, so can't imagine that on old disks)
    > surface "levels" have often a lot of "secrets" which would be nice if you didn't have limited time (especially on survival, sneaking around, waiting for openings), not to mention that sometimes you can't say if you're going after a "secret" or the actual end of the level
    > 3D speech sound is kinda "faulty" (at least it is on linux) to a point you almost can't ear someone talking to you if you're facing the opposite direction
    > monster spawns are sometimes "triggered", meaning that as soon as you do something a couple of monsters spawns behind you.

    This... these are the only objective flaws I was able to find on this title, everything else is pure gold.
    Gorgeous graphics and concept art, good and fitting music, a plot that is just as simple as it is amazing, extremely good work depicting characters personalities with just a few "hints"

    I would also like to point out that the game has a VERY good graphical engine and not only I was able to get ~20% more avg fps than, for example, Bioshock Infinite (both at maximum settings) but Metro 2033 Redux NEVER stuttered, like never EVER.

    Finally there's one thing I'd like to write about just because, as funny as it sounds, prevented me to play this title for almost an year; (on linux) if I kept my USB Arcade Stick plugged, Metro fps were locked to 11~13 meaning it was totally unplayable, once I unplugged the stick, I got 70 fps on the benchmark...    … Expand

    Not a bad game, in fact, it can be quite interesting to some extent. But when compared with other FPS games, it won't stand out.

    Metro 2033 has the best atmosphere and a good story.Though it is clumsy when u control your chara.The last phase and metro world attract me because of the first-person perspective and the depressive scene.

    Definitely a great game! Great setting and atmosphere and good story. There is some minor problems though. There's some issues with the dialogue volumes; when you walk in a crowded space everyone just starts talking at the same time with the same volume and it becomes really annoying in the first hours of the game.

Another issue I would say is the not so good inventory, you can't really do much in it. you can't change the place of your guns, grenades or anything else. I had just one crash at the last part of the game. Other than these it's a pretty awesome game, I would recommend to everyone who likes post apocalyptic stories.… Expand

    Одна из лучших игр в которые я играл за все годы своей жизни, когда то в далеком детстве играл ещё не в REDUX версии этих игр, я даже если честно не знаю, не сравнивал сильно ли изменилась графика в игре между этими версиями игр. Я не читал ни одной книги МЕТРО, но надеюсь когда-нибудь доберусь до них, что бы понять целостность сюжета.

Я не читал ни одной книги МЕТРО, но надеюсь когда-нибудь доберусь до них, что бы понять целостность сюжета. Потому что конкретно к этой части есть вопросы. Начинается интересно, но продолжается как то рывками. Будто много чего пропустил или наоборот, странно как то когда ГГ находят все и вся настолько легко насколько можно. Очень понравилось то, что есть в игре карма и от неё зависит то, какую концовку ты получишь. Очень приятно играть, все смотреть и слушать потому что в этой игре есть душа, в неё её вложили. Разработчики знали "Почему" они делают эту игру, что вылилось в "Что" они из этого получили. Спасибо им за это огромное. Проходя игру сейчас не могу не радоваться уничтоженной рассеи, потому они этого заслуживают как никогда. Быть стертыми с лица земли за все то зло что они делают в отношении моей страны. Но единственное что не понравилось, так это то, что в игре есть каноничная концовка, но зачем тогда вторая не понятно, когда понимаешь это в след части теряешь чувство удовольствия в принятых решениях.… Expand

    A game filled with Action, claustrophobic Tunnels, Nazis, Russians and lots of Monsters of all sorts. When it comes to atmosphere this game really has it all.

When it comes to atmosphere this game really has it all. The tunnels are very well constructed and you feel like going through a huge labyrinth most of the time. In these canal-system you will find some Human-Camps in which you really feel the agony of the surviving people in this demonic-like/apocalyptic World. The Human-Species is suffering and this game knows how to present it well, with a heroic story of a young man who tries to make the world a better place again. On your journey you will meet a few companions, loose some, make new friends, do all kinds of stuff like engeneering, dissabling traps, tiptoeing your way around enemies and lots of shooting.

    The story is well written and playing this game feels like a mix of Fallout 3 (scenery), Call of Duty (action-combat) and Resident-Evil (horror). Short 9 hours filled with agony, heartwarming moments and apolcalyptic monsters.

    You have a few weapons/grenades to choose from and also customization-hubs to advance your inventory or customize already owned weapons. I played 80% of the campaign in Hardcore-Mode but to be honest I´d rather not. Some levels especially at the end are pretty hard and it just destroys your immersion to do the same level again and again until you finally manage to pull it off. Combat feels okay, but there isn´t much recoil, which makes gun-handling fairly easy. For me stealth-gameplay was the most enjoyable way to play.

    All-in-all a great experience and I am really looking forward to play the next titles in the series! Worth every penny!

    I didnt like this as much as the original Metro, maybe because it destroyed its atmosphere a little bit and felt more like playing Last Light in a different location than completelly different game but its still the same as the original in a sense so its still **** amazing.

    This is exactly what the original 2010 game was supposed to look like! I did not see a single bug, some pluses: a diary in which Ch. the hero is going through the chapters passed (though I have not found everything), weapon tuning, a couple of new monsters, more traced character models and a bunch of other little things. In general, I personally advise you to go through redux. In this version, stealth is much more enjoyable than in the 2010 version, where you are sometimes seen through the walls. By the way, in this version I had the opportunity to go through an alternative ending, unlike the original, although the style of the game was identical.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great game overall (save for the graphics, but it is quite old now so it is expected)

    Good parts:
    - Atmosphere - dark and claustrophobic, hella engaging and a bit scary
    - Story - a compelling journey with a bit too much of convenient saviors and accidents for our guy
    - Characters - alive and worthy of your sympathy, although there are literally no female characters in the game, which seems odd since they are definitely alive in the metro, yet not one of them plays a somewhat significant role? Huh?
    - The gameplay is linear, but good

    Bad parts:
    - Some of the enemies are annoying to fight
    - Sometimes something bugs out
    - The "Bad Guys were not actually bad they were just trying to communicate" twist is completely unearned since they were straight-up killing people ??? so how am I supposed to feel sympathetic for them all of a sudden?

    Overall go for the game if you are not scared of a somewhat dated graphics and you will get a great story and a world to love. Cheers.    … Expand

    Metro: 2033 Redux es la mejora del Metro Original, y vaya que si se nota. Si eres detallista verás como se han añadido nuevos efectos, más y mejores telarañas, mejores texturas, y aditamentos varios. No le otorgo mayor nota porque no tiene tanto mérito como cuando se publicó Metro 2033 en 2010.

    One of the most atmospheric and immersive first person shooters of recent years becomes even better, by enriching its gameplay, normalizing its performance and enhancing its graphics, with the use of the latest 4A engine features. Its main disadvantage is the discontinuation of price discount for those who already own the original Metro 2033 upon official release.
